Anyone on here selling these boats, or can provide any support on their condition, etc?
 
It is a bit to travel and find out if they are not as good as they say in the descriptions!
 
Also if anyone has anything similar (at similar cost) would be willing to hear of them.
 
Cheers

If you think you are too small to make a difference,try sleeping with a mosquito in your tent.

I'm not to worried about the trailer to be honest as not intending to tow. The boat will be going on hard stand at Pine Harbour, so will probably sell the trailer on.
 
Wife doesn't like the first one, so that's out the equasion.

I wouldn't buy either of them. After a quick look through trade me i reckon there are allot better boats for the money, i started saving some to my watch list to repost here but there were so many it became ridiculous.

Hi BlairD

It depends on the length want something 8mtrs +! Again I suppose it is personal choice also...once you have something on your mind sometimes youmiss things.

From what i can see you want a plaining hull with a minimum of 4 berths, toilet and shower?
Your not fussed on wood or glass and comfort is more important to you than fishing room. 
You want to keep it on the dry stack which limits you by size and weight. 

From the above i'd look at these:

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=455552378 <- i would seriously look at this one quick!

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=535586576 <- or this one if your up to a bit of finishing work


http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=546219385 <- even this i reckon would be better than the two in your links.

Thats a few i found in 5 mins searching but at the end of the day they may suit me more than you. Good luck with your decision.
